Keys Feature
The BLF-300 Series is ingenious in its simplicity. The black polyester powder coated aluminium absorber collects the sun’s heat and transfers it to the water in the 7 risers. Copper is used for the risers for its high thermal conductivity ensuring the maximum amount of heat energy is passed to the water. As the water in the risers is heated, it rises into the tank to be replaced by cooler water from the tank. The solar heated water is then stored ready for use – hot water free from the sun.
The BLF – 300 Series has a ceramic lined tank with a protective sacrificial anode. The BLF-300 Free Heat features additional anode protection.
- Stylish slimline roof mount design
- Can cut water heating energy use by up to 90%^
- Reliable, low maintenance operation
- Eligible for Government rebates and incentives
* The suggested price is comprised of RRP less the applicable solar incentive and excluding installation. Solar incentive value applies to 300L system in Zone 3.
^ Energy savings of up to 52% to 90% shown are based on Australian Government approved TRNSYS simulation modelling using a medium load. Savings and incentives will vary depending upon your location, type of Seilar system installed, orientation and inclination of the solar collectors, type of water heater being replaced, hot water consumption and fuel tariff. Maximum financial savings off your hot water bill are achievable when replacing an electric water heater on continuous tariff.
